Is there a Kiwi gd cu#t who could do me a favour?
I'm wanting to send a small amount of money -(<100)to a friend in Pp. Have sent a little several times with Western Union but it's always such a PITA. ( I have a feeling someone's going to want to know how and why and in what way but...)
So, I was just thinking that if there was such a Kiwi there I could deposit $ into your NZ account and you could pass on the US to my friend. You can keep the currency margin and the same fee WU charge or ( idealy) pass the $ to her and let me, when I return, compensate you with as many dewy handles of Anchor as you can handle ( or Angkor if you prefer beer flavored with metal tomatoes instead of hops).
* Would have to be someone who has been here (the forum) and has a bit of a record a for obvious reasons.
Curious if I am gonna get a hard time for this. Forums are a funny thing.

Hello, I am asking for you to clarify @bittermelon you are ultimately wanting less than a hundred US $ sent to a friend in the USA and you are in New Zealand and are wanting a fellow New Zealander to receive this money from you and then the Kiwi person here would then forward it on to the USA and your friend there in an unspecified way and you have noted that Western Union is a PITA. the Kiwi here would get more than fair compensation and/or beers. Does that sum up what you are wanting and what is important here?

Open a WorldRemit account for free and send to Wing very fast. Saves you the hassle in future as well.

Not a kiwi, but FYI, you can send from NZ to Cambodia for almost free using world remit and your buddy can collect from wing with just phone number like a normal wing transfer

Oh really? Thanks very much. I will try, though I am half expecting same problems with verifying my ID. Due I think to myself being a bit off the grid- don't have an address linked to a utility.

@bittermelon I'm not a good c**t, so can't help ya out sorry (no NZ bank acct, and not currently in Cambodia).
if you are on Facebook I'd suggest asking members of the Kiwis in Cambodia group

Where does the USA come into it?
Re: Is there a Kiwi gd cu#t who could do me a favour?
oh my freaking word... always hits the nerve, this one. Not every place and corner on this planet is USA! He wants it forwarded to someone in PP as in PHNOM PENH!bossho wrote: ↑Sat Oct 02, 2021 10:29 pm Hello, I am asking for you to clarify @bittermelon you are ultimately wanting less than a hundred US $ sent to a friend in the USA and you are in New Zealand and are wanting a fellow New Zealander to receive this money from you and then the Kiwi person here would then forward it on to the USA and your friend there in an unspecified way and you have noted that Western Union is a PITA. the Kiwi here would get more than fair compensation and/or beers.

Re: Is there a Kiwi gd cu#t who could do me a favour?
oh, that was to me? yeah, I m just really US centric, and I don't speak or read Kiwi very well apparently thus I asked the OP to clarify -
anyhoo, I thought he was asking a good c#@t Kiwi here in Pp to "pass on the US to my friend" and I thought he left out an article and a dollar symbol - dont matter much do it? I do like his Pp shorthand but I am not sure its going to be accepted anytime soon
@duran my my my that's quite a big reaction for a stranger's misread and good intentions, aren't we a wee bit overreacting sweetheart?
panties all bunched up are they?
